The August Paper Pumpkin Kit was called Time for Cake! It was perfect since August is my birthday month! Although, I did not have as many candles on my cake as the one card has! LOL It’s all good, it’s not about the number of candles but the joy you have each year! 🙂

This card was my favorite!!! The copper/rose gold fork is sooooooo amazing!!! It looks real and it’s so shiny and fabulous! I loved it! This card was rather simple and I love the fun printed layers! You could always mix and match the “layers” or use the same print for each layer.

The colors of this kit are different and fun! The shades of blues and pinks go together so well and I love the soft look! All the different balloons in this card make it fun and great for any birthday! There are also balloon stamps so you can always recreate this card with stamped balloons in any color combination!

This card is fun and different. It’s got lots of folds all together and held with the rose gold twine onto a card base.

Here it is all opened up showing off lots of candles. There are a few candles that are popped up too! It’s different and fun and would make a fabulous card for a special “milestone” birthday!!!

The June 2024 Paper Pumpkin is called Life is Sweet! This kit was fruity and full of sooooo many goodies. Die cuts, glimmer die cut words, pearls, vellum, and so much more!!! It also included the NEW In Color Shy Shamrock! Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription that you can enjoy a craft kit sent right to your door. These kits include everything you need to make the project (except scissors). Many of the kits are greeting cards but occasionally they are treat boxes, gift packaging, etc.

I think my favorites were the oranges! Something about that detailed Shy Shamrock die cut really grabbed my attention! I didn’t end up using the pearls on this card. Honestly, I didn’t like the pearls because I felt like they were a little peachy/vanilla looking and the glimmer greetings were very white/shimmery. To me the two looks clashed but that’s just my opinion. Let me know in the comments below if you thought it worked and liked it or you felt the same as me.

You all know I love lemons so this is my second favorite card style! Of course, I also have to mention that the envelopes were super fun with the scallop flap and gorgeous coordinating colors! LOVE IT!!! I really struggle with Congrats cards because I feel like the greeting is super specific. Wedding, new job, retirement……I just feel like I don’t know how to use a congrats card. Feel free to give me suggestions!

It is just crazy how bright white the glimmer greetings are and apparently my lighting. You can hardly see the Miss You that is on these cards. I have many friends and family members who live all over and I just don’t get to see them as often as I would like so this is a card style I can use a lot of. Perfect for a random #happymail card which I love sending out!

Be sure to get signed up for the July Kit before the 10th so you can enjoy the fun of Paper Pumpkin! Perfect thing to do indoors on a hot summer day! Great for taking over to a friend or family member’s house too!

Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription kit with a craft project and everything needed to create it all in a small box. These kits are typically cards but sometimes include treat boxes, home decor, etc. The April 2024 Kit was called Delicate Wings and it was gorgeous!!!

This was probably the easiest card in the kit but it is my favorite! I love how the wings pop forward and the stunning gold!! Of course the greeting melts my heart and I just love that too. This card would be perfect for a sympathy card or just a card sent to a friend or family member letting them know you care.

This card is my second favorite because I love the the colors. Again, the greeting warms my heart and I feel like I could send this to a lot of different people in my life. A friend who’s husband is traveling for work and she’s single parenting the kids all week. Friends who have a kid graduating high school and worried about that next step. Someone who is looking for a new job. That person who recently lost a loved one. Someone who has recently found out these have been diagnosed with something. I’m telling you, nothing beats a handmade card knowing someone cares about you.

While this is the last one I’m sharing, it certainly is not my least favorite. I honestly LOVED this kit very much! I love the gold accents (and I’m technically a silver/white gold girl)!! Butterflies are so beautiful and uplifting in my opinion! These greetings are ones that I will hold out and use often! They are just so heart warming!!!

Of course, Claire and I did this kit together and here are her cards that she created! She is almost 6 years old and she enjoys Paper Pumpkin as much as I do! These kits are really amazing for all ages!

The February Paper Pumpkin Kit was called Sweet Springtime and it was just that. Bunnies, flowers, Easter greetings, and a little chick just scream Spring and I love it!!! Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription kit with a craft project and everything needed to create it all in a small box. These kits are typically cards but sometimes include treat boxes, home decor, etc.

This card is sooooo cute! You could always change up the greeting if you don’t celebrate Easter! The bunnies are precious. I love how the die cut daffodils are layered over the top of printed daffodils for a really nice layered look. Add that thin white border was tricky since it’s really thin. The provided Glue Dots work best but you could always use your favorite liquid glue as well!

Ummmm….the cutest ever! I love this card! I was super bummed that the greeting went right over the yellow flowers (same at the top of the flower ring). Putting the greeting in a different spot went through my mind but I couldn’t find a place I liked the same. Oh well, it’s still so fabulous and it’s a fun slimline card!

The Sweet Springtime Kit included 3 each of the cards above as well as 3 of these little bunny boxes. They are like little milk cartons and perfect for adding a little treat in it for Easter or Spring! My biggest tip is to fold and burnish each of the score lines so it pops together super easy!

The November 2023 Paper Pumpkin Kit – Warmest Wishes contained little glittered winter houses that are to be used as treat packaging! They are so shiny and cute!!!

The glittered snow really doesn’t show up in these photos and that makes me sad. The kit comes with the houses having the glitter on them already which is even better. YAH! Safe glitter! All you have to do is fold on the score lines, add wreaths with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the twine and tag! The kit also includes cellophane bags and wreath stickers to seal them closed. It is just sooooo cute!

My plan with this kit each year is to use it for neighbor gifts! I make Saltine Toffee and bag it up. We walk up and down the street dropping it off on porches for our neighbors! I do have a small problem with this Warmest Wishes Kit…..it’s too little! I could give everyone like 1 bite of the toffee but that is no fun! Soooooo I cut the houses into two. First, I cut the top at the roof and then I cut the bottom flap off so it’s just the front and back of the house. Next, I took the Very Best Trio Punch and added a little hole for ribbon at the top! Now I have a tag to attach to a bag of toffee! PERFECT! Also, since I cut them into 2, I now have twice as many!!! YAH!

Did you get the Warmest Wishes Paper Pumpkin Kit? How are you using your kit this season? Let me know in the comments below!
